Warranty Question for 2021 185X

[mlarma]

I found out that the warranty for the 185X only covered the tents for the first year. I'd thought that, like the Rockwood Roo and the Shamrock, the tent warranty was 3 or 5 years. Anyone have a copy of their 2021's warranty? I am virtually certain the 2020 has the same warranty as ours was made in Aug 2020. Just looking for clarification as it just seemed odd that Palomino would be different.

There should be a manufacturer's tag on one of the inside tent seams. Roo/Shamrock tent ends are made by TJ Snuggles. Since Palomino is a truly separate division of FR Inc, not sure who makes their hybrid tent ends.
I don't remember how long the warranty was on my 2007 Roo tent ends.

Thank you. That’s what I was told as well so I’m glad that is confirmed. I was quite perplexed as I thought FR was all one big company. I’m finding out that there’s a lot more to it.

Yep, FR Inc acquired Palomino back around 2002. Here's a quote from their website:
"Palomino RV operates as a separate division of Forest River, Inc."
And around 2008, FR Inc. purchased Coachmen, Dynamax, Shasta and PrimeTime, during the 2008 financial crisis. I believe all of them also operate as separate divisions.
